Anthony Crawford is being featured on this project with Virgil Donati. This is a mini documentary of Virgil Donati's new album "In This Life". This project features a lot of great players.
Unfortunately I just discovered this fantastic drummer due to the recent death of my biggest musical inspiration , Allan Holdsworth. I thought i've seen all the drummer gods now there's Virgel ! I just purchased everything I could find on Amazon. Holy shit what an unbelievable drummer! All my drummer heros are heard in Virgil's playing ....Amazing ! Now i'm off looking up Anthony Crawford music... What a monster player ! I'm mad I was unaware of these gifts from god awesome musicians ! !! Unreal !!! Reply
I can't even believe this record exists. It's the collaboration of the "top of the food chain" jazz fusion players which I adore every single one of them. This is a dream come true. More, more, more please!
Dude, your bass playing is amazing, and you are so lucky to have got to play with Virgil - history will remember you guys as the pinnacle of modern musicianship.
Phantom Recordings - Studio belongs to Simon Phillips - it's mean everything - it must sounds great!!!!!!!!!!! love this record - the best refe rence record for me!
Had Virgil Donati gotten the Dream Theater gig, who knows whether the world would've been w/out In This Life, The Dawn of Time, and Ruination. The world being better off with these amazing solo projects owes a debt of gratitude to Virgil Donati that the strength of his musicianship, composing, and arranging by which he had confidence to be creative during the DT audition and butt heads with the 'alpha' members of DT lost him the gig.
It was great meeting Virgil and Anthony at Alvas. Virgil is flat out an incredible drummer and musician and Anthony Crawford was an awesome! Virgil's album "In This Life" is great! This is a really cool video...
Thanks for posting Anthony! First time I saw you play was on a Drum channel video with Ron Bruner Jr, your solos are forever etched in my head. I need the complete video footage. I need it bad....Best wishes and continued success!
